Integrity Verification for Cloud Storage

Abstract:

In cloud computing, customers outsource their data to the cloud storage, as they no long physically possess the data, how to perform the integrity verification becomes more difficult. Our protocol follows Shacham and Waters’s ideas (2013). We solve the problem of customer’s privacy against both the cloud and the third-party verifier and formally prove that the complex bilinear operations can be removed under the customer’s help. Every step of our improvements is based on rigorous proofs.
